Notes

Limited to 500 copies.
A collection of 4 cd EPs taken from the 'El Rey' album including un-issued cuts,.

In the words of David Gedge: "In the old days... a band like The Wedding Present would've taken three or four singles off an album and released them around the LP. These days we can't do that because the shops won't stock them, so we came up with the idea to release the EPs that would've accompanied EL REY... all at the same time! These are those 'singles that never were'!"
